Ham Photos is a growing archive of photos of Ham (part of Richmond upon Thames in south-west London) where I have lived since 1996. It delights in the unusual, the unexpected and the unnoticed.

Replacing the garages in Cave Road

It has taken quite a while to get started but work is now underway on the site that used to hold two rows of garages at the end of Cave Road, that's a little road off Hardwicke Road.

The other end of the site borders on to Riverside Drive where it is a lot more obvious that something is happening.

Part of the early work done once the site was cleared was to drill some deep holes. Understandably whatever is being built there is going to need good foundations because of the proximity to the river and the flood plain.
